rEW  YORK  is  the 
foremost  city  of 
the  Western  Hemisphere,  and 
in  some  respects  of  the  world, 
ranking  with  London  and  Paris.  In  area 
and  population  it  is  second  only  to  Lon- 
don. In  great  lofty  structures ;  in  com- 
mercial activity  ;  in  financial  affairs  ;  in 
international  relations ;  in  polyglotical 
representation  ;  in  gigantic  enterprises  ;  in  notable  scien- 
tific and  engineering  achievements  ;  in  colossal  individual 
aggrandizements ;  in  mammoth  corporate  wealth  ;  in  mari- 


time commerce ;  in  aDsoiute  freedom  of  citizens ;  and  in 
the  aggregation  of  civil,  social,  philanthropic,  and  religious 
associations.  New  York  stands  unsurpassed  anywhere  on 
the  globe.  There  is  a  lack  of  noble  public  structures,  and 
a  needed  symmetry  of  outlines  in  external  construction ; 
there  is  still  quasi-crudeness,  as  compared  with  forms  of 
development  attained  by  cities  of  the  Old  World,  but 
even  in  these  respects  no  city  ever  reached  such  thorough 
development  in  a  few  centuries  after  its  settlement. 

These  "  Views  "  merely  give  a  glance  at  a  part  of  the 
city.  For  detailed  information  of  the  whole  city  and  its 
thousands  of  institutions,  get  "  King's  Handbook  of  New

an  unmistakable  story  of  her  present  gigantic  magnitude.
